maggi   10 #1 Posted July 17, 2008 Once again, the Parliamentary Ombudsman has found the Government guilty of maladministration in the matter of pensions.  Today's report, (news on BBC), highlights the plight of Equitable Life investors.  The Ombudsman's report is Equitable Life: a decade of regulatory failure. Does anyone think that this will be treated with any more regard than the previous Trusting in the pensions promise?  It seems to me that the Government are able to discard the Ombudsman's findings when it suits them. If that's right, what's the point of having one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

foxy lady   10 #3 Posted January 30, 2009 Despite the report putting the blame in the lap of the regulators, it seems the Government is still back peddaling on this matter. It now appears they want to means test pensioner to see who NEEDS compensating, rather than the reports findings that all should receive compensation.
